DR99 Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 Well Bosch won't be that excited now after it was on Jimmy Fallons show 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrippedScrew Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 Of course Sawstop wouldn't let this go pure monopoly. They knew Bosch had made a better and cheaper alternative to their safety system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 Did anyone here get a Reaxx saw? That is going to suck. Big time. Leave it to a lawyer to get his grimy money sucking digits into the trades / woodworker lobby. Being a very happy owner of a Sawstop CNS175TGP36, I can honestly say that my saw is a masterpiece but this is crap. Every company should have rights to protect their customers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnarlyCarl Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 Thanks for the update, I wondered how that was going to turn out . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcv76 Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 I know everyone is quick to judge Sawstop for legally stopping the reaxx but what if Bosch did actually infringe on their patent enough to be illegal? There must have been some compelling evidence shown for Sawstop to win in court. I'm pretty sure if it was the other way around Bosch would have taken them to court also. This is how business and patent infringements work. I can only imagine how many individual patents are owned by Sawstop with all the technology in their safety mechanism. I wish there was a safety feature similar on Dewalt saws because I like their rack and pinion better than any other system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruton Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 I guess if I had something patented and would want it protected. I also don't know the details of the patents so I am assuming people much smarter than myself (which is generally most people) will determine if it is truly an infringement. It's unfortunate that something designed to make woodworking safer for all of us has to turn into a "pissing match" amongst the lawyers.Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jronman Posted February 6, 2017 Report Share Posted February 6, 2017 Technically SawStop is breaking the law themselves right? Isn't there a law that states monopolies are illegal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won the Reaxx on the Instagram giveaway. Bosch sent me 2 extra cartridges (4 charges) in addition to the cartridge that came with the saw. It is a really nice saw, night and day between my Porter Cable jobsite and the Bosch very smooth and quite (I attribute that to the belt drive), fence system is smooth and accurate, and the gravity rise stand is great.

Jronman Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 I heard Bosch is going to continue the fight or at least attempted. There was some deadline that was approaching for submitting something to reopen the case. Not sure if Bosch made the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
